Chapter 608 - I’m Not Playing With You Anymore
Chapter 608: I’m Not Playing With You Anymore
‘Yes, that seems to be the case.’
‘I heard that it was because Big Beard Liu deliberately tormented Han Yi. Then, Han Yi’s boss came to visit and just so happened to witness it, so a conflict broke out.’
‘That’s right. I also heard that her boss was very good at directing scripts. After he explained to Han Yi for five minutes, she performed out of the ordinary and acted like the Best Actress.’
‘That awesome?’
‘That’s right.’
Rumors were always born through spreading it, especially in the entertainment industry, where most people liked to attract attention. Therefore, with some exaggeration, the matter became even more legendary.
Of course, Su Yang and the bearded director were also involved in the rumors.
Everyone knew the result of the first bet, so they did not pay much attention to it. However, the second bet caught everyone’s attention.
After all, in that day and age, a box office of 500 million was already very high, Probably ranked among the top in the industry.
Su Yang, in particular, was so arrogant that he did not even want anything in return if he won the bet. This made people even more curious about the movie.
Everyone wanted to know what was the movie that could make Su Yang so confident.
With curiosity, those who knew about the matter went to check on “Wolf Warriors”. Initially, they thought it was quite interesting, but when they saw that the director was Wu Feng, their attitude changed…
Wu Feng had once invested more than 40 million yuan at one point, but he had only gained 7 million yuan at the box office. That incident alone was a huge blow to the confidence of others. Thus, no one thought highly of him…
Su Yang had expected the news to spread, so he paid special attention to it. ‘It’s useless to pay attention to it now, everything shall be revealed in ten days when “Wolf Warriors” is released.
‘The most important thing for me now is to continue with the third phase of the Platinum Mission, shooting a public welfare movie that promotes environmental protection.
‘Furthermore, there’s a requirement for the number of viewers for this short movie. Plus, filming isn’t my area of expertise.’ Hence, the next day, Su Yang went to the film company to look for Bubbles.
Bubbles, the lolita’s original form was a cannon. Initially, it was a random recipe item by the system. After Su Yang created it, he added a second point to it. Unexpectedly, it turned into a humanoid monster with [Advanced Life Evolution]. Furthermore, it even awakened its [Director’s Ability].
After Su Yang’s film company was established, she would go to work every day to help with some work-related matters and continue to learn about directing.
Every few days, she would return to the virtual space to take a short video, “Monster Family” to practice.
Now that “Monster Family” was updated regularly every week, it had a group of loyal fans.
Hence, Su Yang felt that he could trust her with that mission.
The next day, Su Yang arrived at the company. Bubbles was indeed at the film company.
Su Yang then arrived at her small office and told her about the Platinum Mission. He asked if she could do it.
Bubbles thought about it and accepted the mission. However, she had her own conditions, she wanted the best camera in the market.
Su Yang waved his hand…
Then, he transformed one using his [Unknown Sticky Note].
Looking at Bubbles’ resentful gaze, Su Yang patted her head. “Be a good girl now, our family isn’t that well off. Don’t expect too much.”
Bubbles looked at Su Yang bitterly. “Yea right, a poor family with a net worth of billions of yuan.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Look at you, now you’re being too much! Did you have to blow my cover?!’
In the end, after a long discussion, Su Yang still ordered a camera chosen by Bubbles. It was not because Su Yang had a conscience, but because Bubbles was looking at him with resentment.
Think about it. A clown girl with weird makeup, dyed green hair and then tied into two ponytails and wearing a pair of mesh socks was looking up to you whilst chewing a piece of bubble gum. Wouldn’t you be scared?
Su Yang felt that Bubbles was about to cry in the next second and open up her arms to fire her cannons at him…
After agreeing to Bubbles’ request, Su Yang continued to stroke Bubbles’ head. “Bubbles, do you know that at your age, you should normally be wearing school uniforms? If you were in school, you would be dressed differently.”
“Even if you don’t care, the other guys in the company are scared. What should we do about that?”
Just as Su Yang said that, a special effects employee walked over with a smile and said, “Sister Bubbles, you said yesterday that you liked chocolate puffs, so I bought it especially for you. Do remember to eat it.”
Then, he turned around and saw Su Yang standing at the side. Instantly, his expression froze and he stumbled over his words. “Erm… Su… Mr. Su?”
Su Yang nodded.
The employee coughed and took one of the puffs from the bag before passing it to Su Yang. “Su… Mr. Su, you should have one too.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Just one?
‘You’ve given her a bag, yet you’re actually only giving me a piece?!
‘I’m hurt.’
He waved his hand. “It’s fine, you keep it for yourself.”
The employee nodded awkwardly before he put down the bag and left.
He had just taken a step when Su Yang stopped him. “Wait.”
The employee froze on the spot and turned around stiffly. He asked nervously, “Is… Is something the matter, Mr. Su?”
Su Yang asked curiously, “Don’t you find it weird that Bubbles is dressed like this?”
At the mention of this, the employee suddenly became excited. The nervousness on his face disappeared and he said excitedly, “How is that possible! Mr. Su! You’ve got to understand that what Sister Bubbles have is cosplay! She’s cosplaying as a clown girl!”
Su Yang was confused.
The employee’s face was filled with excitement. “Everyone in our company likes this kind of female cosplayers! With Sister Bubbles around, we’re more motivated while we’re working!”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘I’m the one who buffed your work efficiency, what does it have to do with her!
‘And is that considered to be cosplay? That’s her personality!’
Bubbles chewed on her bubble gum and propped up her socks and legs on the table. She then looked up at Su Yang with an arrogant expression. “See? Everyone likes me.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Looks like this female hooligan attitude can’t be changed…’
Su Yang knocked her on the head. “Sit properly! You should sit like a proper woman!”
“Oh…” Bubbles covered her head and sat properly.
Su Yang chatted with the employee for a while more. After confirming that everyone in the company liked Bubbles and that she would frequently feed them, he was relieved.
Su Yang threw Bubbles two pieces of [Unknown Sticky Notes] and told her to finish filming as soon as possible before leaving the office.
When he reached home, Tang Xiaomi came over quietly before he even went upstairs. She walked to Su Yang’s legs and looked up at him. “Su Yang.”
Su Yang lowered his head and looked at the little girl. As he took off his shoes, he patted her head. “What’s the matter?”
Tang Xiaomi avoided Su Yang’s hand in disdain. “You touched my head right after you scratched your feet! Don’t you wash your hands?”
Su Yang laughed out loud before grabbing the little girl over. He touched her head once more. “What’s there to wash? It’s not clean. Do you think you’re clean? Besides, I wasn’t scratching my feet. I was just taking off my socks.”
“I saw you scratching it just now!” Tang Xiaomi was about to explode. She struggled as she said, “If you bully me again, I won’t tell you information about Mommy.”
‘Information about Tang Jing?’
Su Yang stopped what he was doing and asked curiously, “What information?”
When Tang Xiaomi saw that Su Yang was concerned, she raised her head proudly and said cutely, “Hmph! Who told you to bully me? I’m not telling you!”
When he saw that she was gloating, Su Yang followed her example and said, “Hmph, I don’t want to know anyway.”
Su Yang let go of the little girl and took off his shoes before heading to the dining room to look for something to eat.
When Su Yang stopped asking, Tang Xiaomi pretended not to care at first. Then, she started to sneak glances at Su Yang. After that, she sat on the sofa and covered her face with her hands.
Su Yang had the [Space Traversing Eyes], so when she looked at him, he immediately noticed it.
However, Su Yang was smart enough to pretend that he did not notice anything and continued cooking.
Tang Xiaomi continued to peek, one glance, two glances…
Seeing that Su Yang was really not going to ask her, the little girl could not hold it in anymore. She walked over and pouted her lips. “Hey, aren’t you curious?”
Su Yang lowered his head and looked at the little fella with a nonchalant expression. “What should I be curious about?”
Tang Xiaomi’s little face puffed up. She hummed twice and returned to the sofa. She began to pinch the Quickgold Monster to vent her anger.
The Lesser Quickgold Monster had been by Tang Xiaomi’s side for more than a month. It seemed to have grown a lot. Perhaps it was used to being abused by Tang Xiaomi, so when Tang Xiaomi pinched it, it did not mind at all. It even closed its eyes in enjoyment.
Su Yang suspected that it had awakened the talent of masochism.
Tang Xiaomi pinched the Lesser Quickgold Monster for a while. When she couldn’t take it anymore, she came over and patted Su Yang’s leg like an adult. She puffed up her cheeks and said, “Alright, since you asked me so sincerely, I’ll tell you.”
Su Yang suppressed his laughter. ‘She really is a child indeed.’
Tang Xiaomi waved at Su Yang and gestured for him to squat down.
There was no one else in the house, so Su Yang did not know who she was being so careful with. He suspected that she had watched too many dramas and that was how secrets were supposed to be kept. Hence, he squatted down and moved his ears closer to her.
Tang Xiaomi placed her little hand on Su Yang’s ear and formed a horn shape. Then, she moved her mouth closer and whispered, “Here it is, my mommy never wanted you to meet that bad woman. She doesn’t want to make things go ugly.”
“But that bad woman bullied her again yesterday, so she was really angry. She decided to listen to you and properly anger her.”
Su Yang understood the situation now. ‘So that’s what happened.
‘I see.’
After that, Su Yang reached out to scratch his feet and pretended to want to touch Tang Xiaomi’s head.
Tang Xiaomi bounced up like a spring. As she ran, she shouted, “Su Yang! You’re so mean! I won’t play with you anymore!”
Su Yang laughed loudly behind her.
‘This child is really cute.
‘She’s really tricking me into having my own daughter.’
After Su Yang made Tang Xiaomi run away, he returned to his room, humming happily.
That night, Tang Jing found Su Yang and told him that she had contacted her stepmother. She wanted Su Yang to talk to her and asked when he would be free.
Su Yang had always loved gossip like this. Hence, he did not hesitate to arrange for it to be during the weekend.
Tang Jing nodded and left.
In the blink of an eye, the weekend arrived…
